More and more it is coming down to the defining of words within the Constitution, in this case "person", in which the courts seem to be taking the Constitutions Preamble into consideration where in it states "to ourselves and our posterity" to mean just that, only for citizens or those with the consent of our government to be here; as it should be.

Excellent start! Maybe there is light at the end of the tunnel afterall. Anyone with common sense would know that when "persons or people" are referenced in our Constitution that it means citizens or those authorized to be here.

Asking for an I.D is not a violation of anyones civil rights. So you would rather anyone from any part of the globe be able to just come in and wander about? Might as well give up on having a country of your own. A country without borders is no longer a country.
